For the most critical assemblies where thermal, mechanical and rheological requirements are the most demanding, virgin sprue waxes are the material of choice providing consistent injection, high strength and clean burnout.
With state-of-the-art reclaiming facilities, we are able to offer consistent, high performance sprue waxes based either on a generic source or on your own autoclave wax stream.

Whether you call it a sprue, runner, gating, tree, pole, or anything else, our waxes offer the investment casting foundry confidence in their consistent performance. An assembly is only as good as the sprue system that delivers metal to the cast part, and numerous factors impact the performance of the sprue system. Key characteristics of these waxes are their clean burnout, toughness, low melting, low viscosity and good flow properties / rheology.
We offer several standard grades of both virgin and reclaim that cover the range of demands seen by the various market segments. Paramelt will work with you to identify the best choice for your application or custom-formulate a blend that works perfect for your needs.

Runner waxes to rely on:
The development of reclaim runner wax has benefited the investment casting industry tremendously. In addition to reducing the waste of disposing of spent wax, the reclaim runner waxes lower the cost to the foundry while delivering the needed performance.
We offer several reclaim runner waxes that cover a large majority of the application demands in the investment casting industry. More than simply needing a low melting point, runner wax needs mechanical strength to maintain proper spacing of the parts during shell building, to have low impact on the shell during dewax and minimal residual ash to prevent contamination of the metal during pouring.
A cost effective solution for the industry, reclaim runner waxes make good business sense to use whenever possible. With the industry leading technology of Paramelt, our reclaim runner waxes perform time and time again.
When the product performance demands are high and the control requirements are at their greatest, Paramelt’s virgin runner waxes deliver. The industry’s most reliable and most commonly used virgin runner waxes are made by Paramelt.
With several options to choose from, we will work with you to find the most compatible runner wax for your process. To maximize consistency in your injection quality, our virgin sprue waxes are the best choice. They ensure low residual ash, consistent quality and repeatability while having the strength required to hold complex shapes.
